3. Instructions for the installer 3.1. Installation regulations The boiler is designed in compliance with rules and regulations enforced in the country indicated on the technical data plate. The installation in a different country may be a source of danger for people, animals and property. 3.2. Installation Use only original accessories and spare parts supplied by the manufacturer for installation as well as maintenance and any component replacements. Proper functioning of the boiler cannot be guaranteed in the event that non-original accessories and spare parts are used. 3.2.1. Packaging The boilers are supplied with the door and smoke chamber already assembled, but the boiler housing or staves with the insulation are supplied in separate cardboard packaging. The models with heat output between 70 kw and 400 kw are supplied with staves under boiler body, while coating load-bearing structure and insulation are placed at the boiler side. The models with heat output between 500 kw and 1300 kw are supplied with staves and insulation inside boiler furnace, while frame is placed on top of the boiler. The models with heat output above 1300 kw are supplied with pre-installed embossed aluminium shell protective insulation. The flue brush for cleaning the tubes is delivered inside the combustion chamber. After having removed the packaging of the boiler and accessories, ensure that these are in perfect condition. The packaging materials are recyclable. Gather them in the appropriate collection points. Do not leave packaging within the reach of children since it can be, by its very nature, dangerous. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage to people, animals and property due to failure to observe the above. Before commencing installation, check that the length and width of the body of the boiler delivered correspond to the dimensions of the boiler ordered, as shown on the technical data tables, and that the cardboard boxes containing the casing are marked with the same model. Before connecting the boiler, perform the following operations: Thoroughly wash all tubing of the system in order to remove any residues which may compromise the functioning of the boiler. Check that the chimney has sufficient suction, that it does not have any bottlenecks and is free of slag; that it is free of discharges from other devices (unless this duct has been specially designed to support other systems). Ensure that all the current regulations relative to chimneys are observed. 3.2.2. Choosing where to install the boiler In determining the location for installing the boiler, take into consideration the instructions provided in Point 3.2.4 Air intake/flue gas system and sub-paragraphs. Installation must observe the regulations and laws in force. It is advisable to install the boiler in a well-ventilated place and where ordinary and extraordinary maintenance can be easily performed. 13
3.2.3. Hydraulic connections 3.2.3.1. Thermal hot water system with closed expansion vessel Furnace output 300.000 kcal/h pressure 6 bar (fig. 4) The generator must be equipped with: a - Safety valve b - Expansion vessel (connected with a 18 mm diam. duct) c - Regulation thermostats d - Safety thermostat e - Locking pressure switch f - Regulation thermometer holder g - Manometer with flange for control manometer h - Thermal discharge valve or fuel valve N1 - Flow N2 - Return N3 - Connection for additional equipment N4 - Lower connections: N4b - Expansion vessel connection N4c - Loading / unloading N6 - Bulb holder (thermometer, regulation thermostat, safety thermostat, pump consent thermostat). c d N2 N3 N6 N1 h a g e f N4 N4b b N4c fig. 4 3.2.3.2.

Since the water pressure in the heating system increases during operation, ensure that the maximum value does not exceed the maximum hydraulic pressure shown on the component s plate (6 bar). Check that the boiler and water heater safety valve discharges are connected to a discharge hopper so as to avoid that the valves, as a result of a malfunction, flood the area during operation. Check that the hydraulic and heating system piping is no used for earthing the electrical system. Should this be the case, in a short time serious damage may be caused to the piping, boiler, water heater and radiator. Once the heating system is filled with water, it is advisable to close the supply tap and keep it in this position. Any leakages from the system will, therefore, be noticed by a drop in the hydraulic pressure shown on the manometer. 14
3.2.4. Air intake / flue gas system The boilers are built with an open combustion chamber and are designed to be attached to a chimney. The combustion air is taken directly from the environment in which the boiler is installed. The burner needs air for the combustion of solid or liquid fuel. Therefore, it is necessary to provide openings for the entry of air into the boiler room. Ensure that these openings are never obstructed. It is mandatory to install the boiler in a room complying with the prescriptions of the regulations in force, which should be considered as a full integral part of this manual. The boiler has a flue discharge connection suited to be connected to a flue duct with a diameter as indicated in figures 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ( Øc parameter). With regard to flue discharge into the atmosphere, follow the regulations in force which should be considered as a full integral part of this manual. The flue ducts coming from the boiler must be connected to a chimney made in compliance with the applicable regulations, which should be considered as a full integral part of this manual. The chimney must be calculated to ensure that there is no positive pressure at the base. Since it is a high performance boiler, the flue gas temperature is low. Therefore condensate may appear inside the chimney pipe, especially if the boiler is operating with a two-stage burner. The chimney must, therefore, comply with the following requirements: The diameter must not be less than the diameter of the boiler discharge pipe. It must be made of impermeable material, resistant to flue temperature and acid condensate. Low thermal conductivity, sufficient mechanical resistance, perfect seal, correctly calculated height and cross-section. Vertically positioned with a constant cross-section, without any bottlenecks. The end section must ensure constant, efficient discharge of flue in any atmospheric conditions. During installation a special fitting must be installed allowing for flue gas sampling and subsequent burner regulation and the measurement of the boiler efficiency. It is mandatory to install a special section to allow the collection and discharge of acid condensates before these reach the boiler. 15
3.3. Electrical connection The electrical connections of a thermal system designed only for the heating of buildings is subject to numerous legal regulations of a general and specific nature for the individual types of applications or fuel. It is therefore necessary to comply with local standards. 3.3.1.

3.4. Door opening reversal procedure Should it be necessary to reverse the door opening direction, proceed as follows: 1. Exchange the external nut (or bush) of a hinge with the diametrically opposite closing bush. Then secure the cone on the hinge side to the door with the internal nut. 2. Repeat the operation for the other hinge. 3. Use the appropriate nuts of the hinges to make any adjustments. 3.5. Burner connection It must be remembered that the electrical board of the boiler supports a two-stage burner. Before installing, it is advisable to thoroughly clean the inside of all fuel supply pipes in order to remove any residues which may compromise the proper functioning of the boiler. Check the maximum pressure value in the furnace indicated in the technical data tables. The value measured can increase by 20% if the fuel used is naphta rather than gas or diesel-oil. In addition, perform the following checks: a) Check internal and external sealing of the fuel supply system. b) Regulate the fuel supply rate according to the capacity required by the boiler. c) Check that the boiler is supplied with the type of fuel for which it is pre-adjusted. d) Check that the fuel supply pressure is within the values indicated on the burner plate. e) Check that the fuel supply system is sized for the maximum capacity needed by the boiler and is equipped with all the safety and regulating devices required by the regulations mentioned above. f ) Ensure that the ventilation of the area is sufficient to guarantee air flow as required by law and so as to achieve perfect combustion. In particular, when using gas it is necessary to: g) Check that the supply line and gas train comply with the relevant regulations in force. h) Ensure that all gas connections are sealed. i) Ensure that the gas pipes are not used to earth electrical devices If the boiler is not used for a certain period, cut off the fuel supply IMPORTANT Fill the space between the burner nozzle and the door with suitable thermoinsulating material, such as a ceramic seam (fig. 8).

Pass the cable through the opening shown (see fig. 17). fig. 17 If the kit includes the staves for the panel (completed with mounting holes and openings for all cables) it is advisable to use it for ease of use; in this case the panel can be either mounted on the right hand or left hand side of the casing. fig. 18 23
5. Start-up IMPORTANT Before start-up, fully insert the flue gas agitators, taking care that they are pushed inside by at least 100 mm. 5.1. Preliminary checks Before starting-up the boiler check that The plate data corresponds with the electrical power, hydraulic and liquid or gas fuel supply; The power range of the burner is compatible with that of the boiler. The instructions for the boiler, as well as for the burner, are available in the boiler room. The chimney functions properly. The air vent present is sufficiently large and free of obstacles. The door, flue chamber and burner plate are properly closed so as to guarantee flue sealing in all parts of the boiler. The system is full of water and that any air pockets have been eliminated. Anti-freeze measures have been taken. The circulating pumps function correctly. The expansion vessel and the safety valve(s) are correctly connected (without any locking device) and function properly. Check electrical parts and that thermostats function properly. 5.2. Water treatment The most common phenomena occurring in thermal systems are: Lime incrustations Lime incrustations interfere with the thermal exchange between the combustion gases and water, causing an abnormal increase in the temperature of the parts exposed to flame and therefore, a noticeable reduction in the lifespan of the boiler. Lime becomes concentrated at the points where the wall temperature is the highest. The best prevention measure is, therefore, the elimination of areas of over-heating. The incrustations form a non-conductive layer which reduces the thermal exchange of the generator, diminishing the efficiency. This means that a substantial part of the heat obtained by combustion is not fully transferred to the water in the system but escapes via the chimney. % 30 20 10 0 Lime graph 5 10 15 20 mm % % fuel not utilised mm mm of lime fig. 19 Water side corrosion The corrosion of the metal surfaces of the boiler on water side is due to ions of the iron solution passing through the system (Fe+). The presence of dissolved gases, in particular oxygen and carbon dioxide, has a significant role in this process. Often corrosive phenomena are seen in softened and/or demineralised water which by nature is already more aggressive towards iron (acid water with ph < 7). In these cases, incrustation is avoided but not corrosion and it is necessary to treat the water itself with corrosive process inhibitors. 5.3. Filling the system Water must enter the heating system as slowly as possible and in quantities proportional to the air release capacity of the relevant components. The filling time varies according to the size of the system but is never less than 2 or 3 hours. In the case of a closed expansion vessel system, water must be added until the arrow on the manometer reaches the static pressure value pre-set by the vessel. Proceed to initial water heating to the maximum temperature permitted by the system but never exceeding 90 C. During this operation the air in the water is released via automatic or manual air separators fitted in the system. Once the air release is complete, restore the pressure to the pre-set value and close the manual and/or automatic supply tap. 24
6. Operation The heating system must be suitably operated so as to ensure optimal combustion with reduced atmospheric emissions of carbon dioxide, unburnt hydrocarbon and soot, as well as to avoid damage to persons or property.

The temperature gap between flow and return must not exceed 15 C in order to avoid thermal shocks to the boiler structure. The return temperature must not exceed 55 C so as to protect the boiler from corrosion due to condensation of flue gases on surfaces which are too cold. For this reason, it is advisable to moderate the return temperature by installing a 3 or 4-way mixer value. The guarantee does not cover damage caused by condensate. It is obligatory to install a recirculation pump (anti-condensate pump) to mix cold returns. The pump must have a minimum capacity of about 5 m3/h and be at least equal to approx. 1/3 of the CH pump capacity. The burner switch must always be on. This way, the water temperature in the boiler will remain around the value set with the thermostat. NOTE In the event of insufficient flue sealing in the front part (door and burner plate) or back part (flue chamber) of the boiler, it is necessary to adjust the tension rods of the individual components. If this is not sufficient, replace the relevant gaskets. NOTE Do not open the door and do not remove the flue chamber while the burner is operating. Wait a few minutes after the burner has been switched off to allow the insulations cool down. 7. Maintenance Maintenance (and repair) operations must be performed only by qualified personnel who satisfy the requirements established by the laws in force. A correct maintenance of the boiler and burner in terms of procedures and time, ensures that these function under the best conditions, with respect for the environment and in complete safety for persons, animals and property. The manufacturer advises the Customer to contact the manufacturer s Authorised Service Centres who are trained to perform the required maintenance and repair operations. Before proceeding with maintenance, repair, component replacement or internal cleaning of the boiler, and in particular, before opening the door of the furnace, it is necessary to take the following safety precautions: - Interrupt fuel supply. - If the boiler was operating, wait for it to cool down, allowing the water circulate within the system. - Disconnect the boiler and burner from the mains. - Place a sign on the boiler with the following text: DO NOT USE, MAINTENANCE IN PROGRESS, BOILER NON-OPERATIONAL Wear suitable clothing, gloves, goggles and face masks during maintenance operations. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the residue of combustion which must be disposed of in special containers showing the contents. Combustion residues are highly polluting. Do not disperse into the environment but place them in the appropriate collection areas. 7.1. Ordinary maintenance The operating conditions of the boiler vary from case to case and depend on: fuel used, burner regulation, number of times the boiler is started up and system characteristics. Therefore, it is not possible to establish in advance a set interval between one maintenance session and the next. The service engineer must determine this time interval on the basis of an initial observation of the degree of soiling of the flue system. As a guide, the following intervals are recommended for cleaning the pipes (with the brush provided) and the agitators depending on the type of fuel used: Once a year for gas boilers. Every three months for diesel-oil boilers. Once a month for naphta boilers. Local regulations regarding maintenance must always be observed. 26
A quick clean of the product can be performed by opening the front door only, removing the agitators and brushing the pipes with the brush provided. This operation should be repeated at least once a month during periods of activity of the generator and is intended to avoid combustion residues from blocking the agitators so that these cannot be easily removed. For a more thorough clean, remove the flue chamber to expel carbon residues from the back. During any ordinary maintenance operation, the brush must always be used to clean the pipes (after having removed the agitators) and the furnace, and also to collect the combustion residues through the doors located on the flue chamber. Do not use flammable products, such as petrol, solvents or others, to clean the heat exchanger. Check on the proper functioning of the control and measuring instruments of the generator (thermostats, thermometers) and of the system (hydrometers, flow meters, pressure switches, expansion vessels, power units, safety devices). It is good practice to analyse the water in the system and ensure that it is adequately treated to avoid the formation of lime incrustations which initially reduce the output of the boiler and can cause its breakdown over time. It must be remembered that calcium and magnesium salts dissolved in water with frequent topping up, lead to deposits in the boiler which prevent circulation within the generator and cause overheating of the metal plates. This may cause serious damage which cannot be attributed to the structural geometry of the product and/or materials used and/or technical design, and therefore, is not covered by the guarantee. It is also necessary to check the condition of the refractory insulation and the flue sealing gaskets and replace them if necessary. 7.2. End-season maintenance or maintenance before long periods of inactivity In addition to the operations described above, the following has to be performed: Check the wear of the agitators to ensure their timely replacement. After cleaning the flue ducts, clean the inside of the pipes and furnace with a cloth soaked in a diluted solution of caustic soda. Once dry, rub all the surfaces with an oil-soaked cloth. Seal well the air intake opening of the burner and the connection to the chimney in order to prevent the flow of moist air through the boiler. It is advisable to place some quicklime in a container inside the furnace to absorb any moisture. Do not empty the system or the boiler. Protect the screws, nuts and pins of the door with graphite grease. Take note of all the operations which need to be done at the next start-up; in particular, check the operation of the recirculation pump. 7.3. Burner maintenance During each maintenance operation on the boiler, it is necessary to check the burner functioning and adjustment according to the operating, installation and maintenance manual of the burner. This operation must be performed by qualified professional personnel. 7.4. Checking the boiler performance Check the following to ensure that the boiler operates safely: The regulation thermostat. The safety thermostat. The minimum thermostat (its regulation and proper functioning). The recirculation system. The thermoregulator (if present). All other safety and control devices required by local regulations. If the boiler is stared-up for the first time, check: The system manual. The suitability of the room where the boiler is installed. Air vents in the room. Flue gas pipes, their diameters and length. The correct installation of the boiler in accordance with the instructions contained in the present manual. Should the boiler not operate correctly and in the absence of danger to persons, animals or property, notify the system supervisor and complete a declaration describing this fact. 27
